"Do you prefer to be called Can of Nothing or mellorine?"
I know I've been extremely vague about... everything, recently - like how, one day, I opened my private Twitter account again, but under the name mellorine. I didn't say anything about the name, other than that it might sound familiar to some people.
Taking up a bunch of different names without any explanation might not be anything new for me by now, but this... wasn't exactly like all the other cases, was it?
It was supposedly the name of a friend I collaborated with, after all... a friend who also disappeared all of a sudden one day and never really returned to do stuff again.
...But it wasn't. Mellorine was a character with whom I could try new, different things, and admittedly say a bunch of things I normally wouldn't have otherwise. I've just decided to take the name up for myself after I was done with that since I like it... at the time, I thought it was symbolic, and I still kind of do.
Still, I don't want to drop Can of Nothing either. It's too catchy a name, and I have too many memories with it to abandon it. I just wish I could give a clear answer about how I'll use both names (eg: "i'll use mellorine for personal accounts, and can of nothing for musical projects"), but I honestly don't know either, and I'll probably end up mixing it up eventually anyway.
I won't really make a big deal about what anyone calls me. Mellorine, Can, Mel, Rine... Whatever you're used to and comfortable with works. I guess I feel like mellorine fits me better now, if I really had to pick? But it doesn't really matter - please, call me anything.
Oh, and... I'll let you draw your own conclusions. I'm still me - that's not going to change regardless of my name.
(...minus θ zero is like ehhh... i mean, go ahead if you want? but still...)
